The Million Dollar Highway, Colorado

With a name like that, how can you resist? Though this stretch of U.S. 550 is beautiful year round, Autumn is the showstopper time to go. Often compared to Switzerland’s landscape, this is one fall break drive you won’t want to miss. For 25 miles, this winding road boasts views of Southern Colorado’s best terrain, including the towering San Juan Mountains. Late September or early October will give you the most vivid colors.

Oregon beckons the nature lover, with its cascading waterfalls and mountain peaks. Add 80 miles of fall foliage to the mix and an epic road trip through Columbia River Gorge is bucket list worthy. Designated as a National Scenic Area, the Gorge is the largest area to receive the accolade in the country. Be sure to leave time for plenty of stops because beautiful hikes like Angel’s Rest and Triple Falls are a must visit. Plan to book your RV rental in Oregon for early to mid October.
